After more than 40 years on Wall Street, Marc Chaikin founded Chaikin Analytics LLC in 2009 to deliver proven stock analytics to financial service professionals and individual investors. With the Chaikin Power Gauge, an alpha-generating quantitative model as its centerpiece, Chaikin Analytics offers powerful decision-making tools in an easy-to-use desktop and iPad application. Money managers and traders use Chaikin Analytics to improve performance and optimize their workflow by adding an objective and unique view of the market, industry groups and individual equities and ETFs.

NASDAQ OMX and Chaikin Analytics recently introduced three NASDAQ Chaikin Power Indexes based on the Chaikin Power Gauge, designed to outperform their respective NASDAQ benchmarks. The NASDAQ Chaikin Power Indexes are available to fund managers, advisors and investors for licensing and implementation through separately managed accounts and ETFs.

A Wall Street trader, stock broker and analyst, Chaikin created the Chaikin Power Gauge and three technical trading indicators, the widely-used Chaikin Oscillator, the Chaikin Accumulation/Distribution Indicator and the Chaikin Persistency of Money Flow. Chaikin's indicators are industry standards, found on almost every trading platform in the world. Chaikin also pioneered the first real-time analytics workstation for institutional money managers and trading desks, now part of Thomson Reuters' institutional workstation.

Chaikin is a frequent guest on CNBC, Fox Business and Bloomberg TV, and a contributor to both Forbes and MarketWatch.
